Aldo Ino Ilesic of Team Type 1 wins 4th Annual Ricola Twilight Grand Prix

The 4th annual Ricola Twilight Grand Prix presented by Base Camp Adventure Outfitters and promoted by Liberty Cycle and Bernards Township was held on a fast and technical 1.1 mile course in Basking Ridge, NJ. As in past years, the Ricola Alphorn Players and stunt rider Jeff Lenosky of Giant Bicycles added to the festivities.

The race was fast and aggressive from the start but, despite constant attacks, all the breakaway attempts were pulled back by the peloton which regularly reached speeds of over 40 miles per hour on the finish straight.

Will Hofarth of Mountain Khakis soloed off the front with 4 laps to go, but was caught on the last lap after a strong chase by Team Type 1, which was working hard to set up their Slovenian sprinter Aldo Ino Ilesic. Ilesic delivered for his team by edging Eric Barlevav of Mountain Khakis and Francois Parisien of Planet Energy in a close sprint to claim the lion's share of the $10,000 in prize money.
